Band members have played with some of the best in the business including Kasabian, Tom Jones, Kellis, and Muse in venues such as The Royal Albert Hall, Glastonbury main stage and 'Later' with Jools Holland.

Whatever and wherever they’re playing, you can be certain that this high-energy, good-time music will bring some carnival atmosphere to the place!

Behind the wheels of steel, we have Bristol's Godfather of Funk, John Stapleton.
Supreme overlord of the Wanted Records shop in St Nick's Market, his taste and record buying-nous have made this a vital stop on Bristol's record-digging circuit. John's a decorated veteran of the local DJ scene having hosted club nights and parties across the city and beyond for over 20 years covering funk, latin, psych, afro, tropicalia, middle eastern and even Mr Scruff's south-westerly pilgrimages.
